There is an open meeting about the PDC tonight in London http://publicdatacorp.eventbrite.com/ You can reply to the consultation via http://pdcconsult.ernestmarples.com/ In Ernest Marples' words: Please respond now! Time runs out on 27th October 2011. It's just like the Mayan apocalypse, but for open data. -- Javier Ruiz [email protected] +44(0)7877 911 412 @javierruiz On Monday, 24 October 2011 at 13:04, Donovan Hide wrote: > Not sure if you've seen any of the Hargreaves report, but there are > some bits about text mining exceptions to copyright: > > http://www.ipo.gov.uk/ipreview-finalreport.pdf (page 48) > http://www.ipo.gov.uk/ipreview-doc-t.pdf > > The Land Registry, Companies House and Judicial outcome datasets could > be specifically added to these proposals with a bit of lobbying :) > > Cheers, > Donny. > > On 24 October 2011 11:54, Francis Davey <[email protected] > (mailto:[email protected])> wrote: > > 2011/10/24 Paul Waring <[email protected] (mailto:[email protected])>: > > > > > > Level Business have bought some form of subscription service - or at > > > least I > > > presume this is the case since you can view annual accounts on their site > > > within 24 hours of them being accepted by Companies House.
